Protective pipes

Protective pipes are used in the car and electro-technical industries to protect against mechanical damage to isolated conductors, for their colour differentiation, to protect cables, connecting rods and chains.
The pipes are unreinforced – without reinforcement.
Their density varies between 1,2-1,34 g/cm³ and is dependent on the ratio of components used when creating the recipe. The physical characteristics are dependent on level of softening. In general, it can be said,that when softened most of the chemical and physical values decrease, when compared with unsoftened materials.

Processed materials

PVC (polyvinylchloride) is a universal, proven, and reliable material. It was developed in the thirties of the 20th century as one of the first synthetic materials – plastics. It is a material well workable using various technologies, e.g. rolling, extrusion, depositing, or casting, therefore it is predestined for wide range of applications.

PVC has a unique combination of features, which can be further modified in various ways using processing additives. PVC is usually classified into softened - called most frequently PVC-P, ands hard - called PVC-U. Polyvinylchloride ranks among materials that can be recycled well and reused in the manufacture of products. Recyclable PVC is marked PVC-R. In general, products from PVC are called vinyl products.

PVC-P is suitable especially for applications where flexibility and elasticity are essential. Main fields of softened PVC’s application include:

PVC-P features are modified with respect to particular application. Where the appearance is important, the frequent requirement is to achieve the specific colour shade, multi-colour print, or to create a design on the product surface (wood or leather imitation). In technical applications, the most frequent requirements are the long service life and durability. Using the right additives, the service life may reach 10, 15 years, or even more.

Specifications

Protection and colour differentiation of isolated conductors. The pipe can be used at temperatures from -15 °C až +60 °C. At temperatures over +40 °C a under 0 °C they can not be mechanically stressed.
